Women's Blackcurrant Fragrances

Blackcurrant, often listed as cassis, gives fragrance a tart berry character with a distinctly green edge. It is brighter and sharper than a soft berry accord, with juicy facets that can read as sparkling, vinous or slightly tangy depending on the formula. In women’s fragrances, it is commonly used in the opening or heart to add definition to fruity, floral and chypre compositions.

Look for blackcurrant paired with rose, jasmine, violet, citrus, woods or mossy notes. Citrus can make it feel brisk and transparent, while florals round its acidity and woods give the fruit more structure. Blackcurrant bud is different: greener, more aromatic and sometimes savoury than the ripe-fruit impression. Browse this selection if you want a feminine scent with noticeable berry brightness rather than dense sweetness.
